14 years ago Illidan told all World of Warcraft players that they were “not ready” to face the challenges of what was the first expansion of Blizzard’s MMORPG. They will have another chance to prove him wrong shortly when World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Classic is released.
The expansion will return to life on June 2 . It will be exactly at 00:00 on the night of June 1 to 2 when anyone with a subscription to World of Warcraft can pass through the Dark Portal and travel to Terrallente, where new challenges, enemies, areas to explore and much more await for Alliance and Horde soldiers.
However, as of May 18, all players must make an important decision when having to select whether their character remains in the realms of World of Warcraft Classic or if instead they decide to migrate it to World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade Classic. . For those who opt for the first option, absolutely nothing will change, since they will keep their heroes and will continue to have access to the same content as today.
On the other hand, those who choose the second option will be the only ones who will be able to play all the news of the new expansion. In addition, until its launch, you can begin to climb the jewelry profession or try some of the new classes that debuted at the time in Burning Crusade: the draenei and the blood elves.
Making this decision will be mandatory for all players and free , so there will be nothing to pay to make the transfer. Of course, those who want to keep the character in both kingdoms will have to purchase the ” Character Cloning ” service in order to continue using it both in the basic content and in the new expansion.
